A path through the primer focusing on hardtruths about reading, writing, participating and understanding Digital Media Literacy.

“The path forward is hazy. We need to enable people to hear different perspectives and make sense of a very complicated  —  and in many ways, overwhelming  —  information landscape. We cannot fall back on standard educational approaches because the societal context has shifted.

We need to get creative and build the social infrastructure necessary for people to meaningfully and substantively engage across existing structural lines” (dana boyd in #100hardtruths #18: a cultural change about how we make sense of information required)
